Why do we gossip? People gossip mostly because they have nothing better to do. So, they gossip to waste or kill time. Also, people thrive on gossiping for power because they want others to feel that they are more intelligent than them.
A famous quote by Sean Covey that can be found in the book, "The Seven Habits Of Highly Effective Teens", says: "Isn't it kind of silly to think that tearing someone else down builds you up?". In the tabloid magazines, they gossip about famous people, like movie stars, performers and other popular public figures, just to make money! This type of money making gossip can destroy their careers and lives as a whole.
The main point is that any kind of gossip can be much more harmful and destructive in a person's life, than gossip ever being helpful and positive. So, before you are ever tempted to gossip about someone, you should think twice and speak once.
